Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Entomological Science publishes research on insect biology, including morphology, behavior, ecology, and evolution. Recent articles focus on insect morphology and biomechanics, male dimorphism and reproductive strategies, interactions with invasive species and parasites, host-parasite relationships, community assembly in aquatic and terrestrial habitats, and the effects of urbanization on insects. The journal also covers insect taxonomy, distribution, and karyotypes, as well as insect predation and defense mechanisms.
